Amazon’s Echo Auto Has Started Shipping

The voice command personal assistant technology industry has grown
exponentially over the past few years. These types of devices have companies
like Apple and Amazon competing every year for new upgrades to their current
devices and has even caused these companies to partner
with third-party companies to expose this innovation to
more of the public through everyday products like appliances and
smart home technology. Amazon has recently even gotten into the automotive
industry by creating the Auto Echo.

The Echo Auto, which was also on show at CES 2019 is an aftermarket product that was developed to bring the technology of Alexa to automobiles. This highly sought-after product has been on back-order for a while, but Amazon is happy to announce that it has started shipping orders.

The first customers to receive their Echo Auto did so in December
in time for Christmas but the demand is still so high that production has had
to increase in order to fulfill all the orders that have already been placed.
Pre-orders are now being filled and you still are only able to order with
through an invite only.

Although the Echo Auto is the most coveted product that is still
not available to the everyday consumer, Amazon has reported it also had
problems shipping out its original Echo devices in time for the Christmas
rush. No one has given an exact reason why these products were
not ready for the influx of sales for the holidays, but Amazon is assuring its
customers that their devices, whether a Home Echo or the Echo Auto, will
ship at a faster pace than they have seen as of date.
